Mysteries of the smoke monster will be revealed soon! (slight spoiler)
That’s what Daniel Dae Kim (Jin) said in an interview with the AP.
I thought the actors didn’t know what was going to happen?
But apparently he does, this time, and he says (here comes the slight spolier) that the monster is as old as the Island.
In another interview, this one on video from EW.com, he talks about how it feels to know that Jin is alive (”given this economy” he says, “it feels really good”) and what he thinks about all the time travel in the show this season:
Hmm . . interesting. The Smoke Monster is as old as the island? So that takes out the theory that it is some kind of a mechanical force or futuristic flying modules (similar to the nodules in Twister - only more sci fi.)
The nodules in Twister … you mean that game where people get all tangled up? Ha ha. Oh wait … you mean the tornado movie!
Whatever the Smoke Monster is, it looks really fake and doesn’t scare me at all, which is pretty pathetic because EVERYTHING scares me, usually.
